thursday at the farm

cosleeping = no sleeping [for me]

i was taking pictures of the beautiful flowers around grandmother's garden when a bird hopped out from almost under my foot (my foot was about to rest on that tree stump right there) and i was so startled.  but i was even more surprised to find this nest!  there were 11 eggs and i'm still curious to find out what kind of bird that was.

papa is the sweetest.  he insisted on walking out to tell us goodbye.

i can't remember the specifics other than that abigail wanted me to write out her name and then was dissatisfied until she crossed her l's to make an additional uppercase H.

she was being absolutely adorable.  especially in her faces.  she's the cutest when her mind is puzzling to figure things out.

dad continued to masterfully cut this mermaid cake.

from the front, it looked pretty normal.

but all i could think was "lean back!"  she was doing the limbo.

baby girl and her uncle wally.  

gearing up for more airplane rides.  brady was all over it too.  he was not to be left out!

wiped out
